Other efforts have recently entered the picture, including a serial technology as well as a separate wide I/O DRAM technology, based on a 3D packaging technique called through-silicon-via (TSV). The 800- or 1066MHz devices could serve as a bridge to ...

Using a process called digital microfluidics, the analyzer processes a DNA sample and provides results in less than an hour for under $100 per sample, Miles said. By comparison, it takes days or weeks and about $500 per sample to get results when DNA ...

He recreates an ocean environment in microfluidic devices about the size of a stick of gum and uses videomicroscopy to trace and record the microbes' movements in response to food and current. In this case, however, the research methodology was ...

From bulk micromachining to surface micromachining to SOI, and MEMS technology has been following a well-defined evolutionary technical roadmap with 3D integration being the next possible step. In the report, you will find manufacturing trends for the ...

An ESC system typically consists of three sensors—a gyroscope, an accelerometer, and a pressure sensor—all of which can be made using a microelectromechanical system (MEMS) process. Highlighting the move to convergence, automakers are testing systems ...

Microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) are very important for LED back-end process, said ITRI, noting that its MEMS laboratory is the only one in Taiwan with 2-8 inches MEMS wafer process capability. It aims to assist Taiwanese companies in design, ...

Second, the composite nanoparticles can be used as tracers in microfluidic devices to study flow mechanics in microfluidics. Conventional tracers used in flow mechanics studies are large beads. But since components in a microfluidic device are ...

These nanoscale layers scramble light and reflect an iridescent sheen, reported a team from the Netherlands and Japan in the Mar. 12 issue of The Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society B. “This surprises me. I've always assumed they had the ...

The data are essential to determining the production potential of the reservoir, optimizing extraction procedures and designing simulators of the nanoscale pore structure. “Huge reserves of natural gas are known to exist in unconventional gas ...

Professor Duncan Gregory hopes to find a new solid-state storage system based on a nanoscale metallic sponge capable of storing a useful quantity of hydrogen and delivering it to a fuel cell at a rate fast enough to power a small aircraft. ...
